Rodney Rigby and Queensland Theatre present Patrick Hamilton’s Gaslight, adapted by Johnna Wright and Patty Jamieson. The psychological thriller is bound to keep you guessing, offering an exhilarating theatrical journey, embracing the essence of Victorian Gothic while introducing captivating new perspectives. Patrick Hamilton's play from 1938 coined the term we now employ to depict a subtle yet deceitful manipulation, gaslighting. A compelling reimagining, this thriller brims with suspense, daring, and uncertainty. Will the “gaslighting” have its intended dire effect, or will our heroine find the strength to save herself?
